Abstract: | The aim of this paper is to examine the Affordable Housing Policy in Jos Nigeria: A diminishing
dream after 35 years with a view to make recommendations towards addressing the housing problems,
by examining the national Housing Policy, National Housing Fund and the National and housing
development. The purposive random sampling has been employed to select the local government areas
that have the Low-cost housing in Jos Metropolis. Utilising secondary data based on the 2006 National
population census data, National Housing Policy (NHP), National Housing Fund (NHF) and the Land Use
Act, of 1978 the study analysed the quantity of housing delivered by each Local Government. Thematic
and content analysis were used to analyse the data. |
